Coal Supply and Demand
A hands-on simulation perfect for an economics instructional activity, young learners investigate the availability of different sources of natural energy (coal, natural gas, oil, solar, and nuclear) and how this availability affects...
Curated OER
Graphing Heart Rates
Students take their pulse rates. In this graphing lesson, students take their pulse rates and graph them. Students do various physical activities and graph the differences in their pulse rates.
Curated OER
M&Ms; Line Plots and Graphing
Students, using small individual bags of M&Ms, engage in activities including; estimating, sorting, graphing, mean, median, mode, fractions, percentage, and averaging.
Curated OER
Graphing Data
Students graph lines in a coordinate plane. In this geometry instructional activity, students graph lines on a coordinate plane, and identify the slope. They calculate the volume, area and perimeters of the shapes created on a coordinate...
Curated OER
Solving Systems by Graphing
Students solve systems of equation through graphing. In this algebra lesson plan, students solve linear equations and analyze the result to figure out if there is one solution, no solution or infinitely many solutions. They graph their...
Curated OER
Data Collection and Graphing
Students collect data and graph it on a coordinate plane and analyze it. In this statistics lesson, students display their data collection using a graph. They determine which central tendency will work best.
